Gorken waits for the 'ex-Imperials' to go first and will bring up the rear, watching their backs (both the defectors and back the way they came).
To Lyss comment he growls a grumbles, but is mostly silent

Ground Group:
"We'll do what we can to help out," Arik said to Trual'Nuin, allowing a few of the other soldiers to move ahead with Lyss down into the sewer access. Thankfully, it looks the same as they left it. Empty. Though bright flashes can be seen at the distant exit every couple of seconds.
One of the Imperial officers drops down into the tunnel next to Lyss, looking surprised to see another officer that he doesn't recognize. Hearing the changeling's words, though, he looks up to the ceiling(which shakes again from another explosion, though this one a little farther off) and says, "Sounds like bombers. Was only a matter of time until they got some fighters out here, anyway."
The remaining Imperials filter past Gorken, leaving him as the last of the now large group in the corridor. Off in the distance from where they'd come from, he can hear blaster fire and a couple of explosions. They aren't getting close, though.
Flight Group:
((Not waiting anymore. Sorry for the delay. Dol loops and fires on T2. His attack is a 31. Hits and deals 76 damage. Boom.))
Dol brings his X-Wing through a long, fast loop, lining up his sights on the TIE pursuing his wingmate. Just as his ship flies past Va Dien's, Dol fires off a barrage from the X-Wings laser cannons. The four shots hit dead center on the TIE, detonating the cockpit in a ball of flame and sending it to the ground below.
((NPCing Va Dien. He's attempting a Tight Half-Loop(DC 30 stunt). Pilot check is a 29. Since he only failed by 1, he doesn't lose control of the ship and can still go on with his move/attack. He attacks T4. Attack is a 29. Hits and deals 75 damage. Another boom.))
Quickly moving his X-Wing to the side to avoid a collision with Dol, Va Dien attemps to quickly loop around and surprise the other TIE that had pursued him. But he quickly realizes that there isn't going to be enough room, and takes a longer flight path before turning and heading straight at the TIE. He lets loose a quick burst of four last blasts just before colliding head on with the TIE Fighter, destroying the fighter in a quick second and opening a path for Va Dien's fighter to safely fly through.
The two scorched TIE Bombers continue their path, each dropping a last bomb on the ground before heading out over the cliff and beginning to loop around. This time, though, they look to be heading much closer to where the transport has landed. On the ground, as one of the Sentinel shuttles continues to disperse troops out onto the ground, the other opens up a second large cargo bay. Out of it comes another AT-ST walker, moving to follow its companion in a direction that looks like it will take them closer to the exit of the sewage drain.
((Now the two remaining TIEs.
T1 moves behind Va Dien and fires. Attack is a 22. Just hits and deals 43 damage. That takes out the shields and does 13 damage to the X-Wing's hull.
T3 gets behind Dol and shoots. Its attack is a 17. Misses.))
The last two fighters come around in long turns, each getting behind one of the X-Wings and opening fire with their two small laser cannons. Va Dien's X-Wing takes a strong hit to the shields, knocking them out and pushing through to put a good scorch mark on the back of the X-Wing and giving the ship a violent shake. Dol has better luck, managing to maneuver around a badly aimed shot and watching the series of green shots go right over his cockpit and dissipate off into the sky.
((End of the Round. New map attached.))

Major Trual'Nuin - duros noble (3rd lvl)
Trual'Nuin runs in front of the troop along Lyss Arkess. When reaching the exit of the sewers, he tries to assert the situation before going into the open and running to the starship. [OOC: makes a Spot (at +5) and a Listen (at +5) check to determine if there is danger (ambush, etc.) just before going out of the sewers]

Groken follows the group, trying to watch both ways at once. He holds the blaster tight, ready for the ambush he is sure is coming... any time now. Watching and listening for any signs of trouble
(occ spot +2, listen +2 /occ)

Ground Group:
Reaching the edge of the sewer, the sounds of a firefight can be heard all around. You can hear the loud echoes of heavy weapon firing and multiple sounds that can only be TIE fighters. A second later, two large, twin-pod TIE Bombers fly out over the sewer, heading out off the cliff in front of you and looking ready to wrap around to head back.
Looking out of the sewer more carefully, you see that the area to the left, where your transport was set down, is clear. On the other side, though, you see chaos. In the sky, a fireball falls to the ground, with the two X-Wing fighters streaking past after two of the normal TIE Fighters right behind them. There are multiple large scorch marks in the ground that could only have come from the TIE Bombers, likely explaining the heavy explosions you had heard. But there is another problem, much more immediate and much closer.
Just off to the left, two large Sentinel-class Imperial troop shuttles are on the ground. There is a huge outpouring of white stormtroopers from one of them, all heading your direction but at the same time spreading out as if searching. But from the other, two large AT-ST scout walkers have emerged. They are quickly making their way through the lightly forested area, coming straight for the sewer pipe, their heads turning side to side as they slowly scan the area.
After carefully having his own look out to what is going on, Arik pulls back into the sewer pipe and says, "I didn't think we were worth this much effort. My men can help put down some covering fire. Where's your ship at?"
Flight Group:
((Dol's attack against TB1 is a 30. Hits and deals 73 damage. Another boom.))
The X-Wing streaks forward, shots from the four laser cannons arching in towards the nearest TIE Bomber. All four hit, piercing the solar panel and seperating it from the rest of the fighter. There is a half second where it falls from the sky in two seperate pieces, then a flame erupts from the mid section of the bomber and it fireballs down to the lake below in a bright flash.
((Va Dien flies forward then attempts a Tight Half Loop to face T1. Pilot check on the stunt is a 30. Just barely makes it. His attack against T1 is a 29. Hits and T1 takes 61 damage. Its down.))
Va Dien's X-Wing shoots forward, away from the pursuing TIE, before half-looping around and rolling to re-orient the ship. Now, flying straight at the surprised TIE Pilot, Va Dien fires off a quick burst of shots from the X-Wings laser cannons. The shots hit the cockpit dead on, detonating it immediatly and opening a path for the X-Wing to fly through instead of colliding.
The remaining TIE bomber continues its long loop around, this time heading straight for the downed assault transport. It also seems to be ignoring the fact that the two X-Wings are easily shooting down the other fighters. The remaining TIE l/n streaks past Va Dien's X-Wing, still staying on Dol's tail and letting loose a quick burst of green laser fire.
((Attack against Dol is an 11. Horrible miss.))
The shots go high, firing off into the blue sky above and disappearing.

Gorken growls loudly "Ggrraaarrr gggrrroorrr RRa. Ccrrroookk Krronnn, rrrMMkkk" and points towards the ship, waving the Imperial forward.
For those who speak Shyriiwook
